How else would one manage in-place upgrades and repairs of CRAC?

thehotaisle You make an extremely good point, data centers need to be designed to enable this kind of work to go on without impacting service. Maintenance and repair are business as usual activities. They still are mucky and dangerous things to do in a live site. Work plans would usually be structured to do as much of the fabrication outside the raised floor area as possible and keep the place a bit cleaner than the engineer here has done.
